What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionBacteria have been implicated in the development of pouchitis after ileal pouch anal anastomosis. The change in gastric pH with the use of proton pump inhibitors and H(2) antagonists may lead to alteration of enteric bacteria. We hypothesized that chronic use of these medications would decrease the incidence of pouchitis.
methodsPatients who had undergone ileal pouch anal anastomosis for ulcerative colitis were classified by history of pouchitis. Patients were further classified by their use of proton pump inhibitors, H(2) blockers, antacids, and other known risk factors for pouchitis.
resultsEighty-five patients were identified. There was a statistically significant increase in the use of daily acid suppression in patients without pouchitis. There was also a statistically significant increase in the use of antacids in patients without pouchitis. Occasional use of acid suppression did not alter the rate of pouchitis.
conclusionsOur data suggest that the daily use of proton pump inhibitors, H(2) antagonists, or antacids is associated with a decreased risk of pouchitis in ulcerative colitis. Occasional use of these agents did not seem to afford the same protection. These data suggest that altering the pH of the gastrointestinal tract may influence the development of pouchitis.
